We normally save pics for our best work, but I really believe that this one deserves a post. I was an apprentice when I did this tattoo. 15 ish years later, it’s still there. I started my apprenticeship around this time. Guess I’m feeling nostalgic. In the season of gratitude, I am forever grateful to everyone who has chosen me to tattoo them. Wish I could tag you all. Thanks for the love!! 🙏🏽🖖🏽

An artist is always alone - if he is an artist. Big thanks to my client @ernestoluna56 for getting one of my original Dietzel Girls. It means a lot when someone chooses to wear my art on them. 🙏🏽🖖🏽

The Burning Monk. This has honestly been the most interesting tattoo anyone has ever asked me for. Swipe to read a little bit of the history. Seems appropriate to post it today.

Home is behind, the world ahead, and there are many paths to tread. Through shadows to the edge of night, until the stars are all alight.

August was a rough month. Glad to start September on a good note. Shoutout to @arte.a.gogodallas and @thehoneysabina for another great art night. It was fun and much needed.

These monthly art nights are therapy for me. It’s a restoration that brings me back to a world that I’ve always existed in. A world full of paper, pens, pencil shavings and eraser marks. Shoutout to @arte.a.gogodallas @h0ll0weenie @threelinksdeepellum

You simply have to accept that your demons are a part of you.

I am not an Angel and do not pretend to be. That is not one of my roles. But I am not the Devil either. I am a man and a serious artist, and I would like so to be judged. 🪽

Another fun Disney family tribute piece. Space Mountain may be the oldest ride in the park, but it has the longest line. Thanks for the love y’all. 🙏🏽🖖🏽

Did y’all know that by the time Tutankhamun, or King Tut, ruled Egypt, the civilization was already thousands of years old. Egypt truly is a mystery. Definitely a bucket list destination for me.

Did anyone else get teary eyed during the opening sequence of up???? I love when clients all for little personal touches in their tattoos. I also enjoyed doing this softer sketchy style. Lots of fun.

My great grandmother was Mayera. She had light skin, green eyes and only spoke Maya. I had a lot of fun working on this piece. It’s about 5 months healed. The subject matter is near and dear to my heart. It speaks to my indigenous side. Hit that like y’all. Peace and blessings.“Bo’otik”

Guy walks into a tattoo shop and asks for a man battling a giant wolf. I must oblige!! This is just the start to a full sleeve. 🐺 ⚡️

These pretty ladies started as simple figure studies. Then of course they became my version of Dietzel girls cause I just love drawing Dietzel girls. They are up for tattooing if you’d like to wear one. Email me for info. myidiothearttattoos@gmail.com. PS. No AI or tracing was used for these drawings.
